A Bucks party is a once in a life time event. It is a chance for you to show your best mate (in a very manly way with no hugging or exchange of mushy words) how much he means to you, its a chance for you to outshine all your other mates by doing something really awesome and, its a chance for you to have a wicked day. So - lets do it properly and lets make it memorable.

It's a once in a life time trip, for a once in a life time event. Your best mate only gets one Bucks so make it something that will never be repeated. And I can pretty much guarantee that this is one of those things. Private, luxury helicopter flight to a secluded 'Bucks' beach, packed up with beers, lunch hamper - all the necessaries. Left to chill for the day before being collected again in style and helicoptered back to the Gold Coast. When was the last time you did that? Never. When will you do it again? Um - never.

Our 'island time' take place on an isolated area of South Stradbroke Island. Your helicopter is crammed with a Bucks of an Esky (cold beer, fresh seafood, chips & dips etc.) tables, chairs, umbrellas and all the necessary utensils. Dropped off mid-morning, left to your own devices then collected again mid-afternoon - the only thing that would make it better is a knowledge that the beer won't run short so we have cleared some space in the helicopter for you boys to BYO.

The flight itself takes you over the glistening Gold Coast Broadwater and Beaches giving you fantastic views of the Surfers Skyline to the south and the extravagant homes of the Sovereign islands to the North. Settled in leather seats with a bird's eye view of Queensland's proclaimed paradise - it's the only way to travel. A superb natural reserve, South Stradbroke Island offers calm inner waterways on one side, virtually untouched native bushland in the centre, and on the other side, 22kms of pristine surf beach. It's Australia at its best - just surf, sun and sand. This is literally an island that was made specifically for Bucks. Hang out on the beach, game of footy in the dunes, body surfing races - make as much noise as you can because no one can hear you scream - it's nirvana for a day.

Scarlett Bond just loves a good party. So it made sense for her to party for a living. It turns out that she is now too old and cant do hangovers anymore so now she organises, writes and blogs for Bucks Night Ideas filling it with all things Bucks and at Hens Night Ideas resplendent for all things Hens. Happy hangovers. Scarlett x
